how about a nearby protest with the goal of gathering more people than the parade itself? that would piss him off

An 8 mile protest in the way.

A protest with signs that point out how much trump hates the military would be good.

The "Real America" protest

This is the correct response.

ETA: and I strongly suspect this will happen somehow. So, his birthday is June 14th, so those who can should start making plans to be in DC around then (actual day of parade may be different, so don't lock in specific dates until there's more info).

Meanwhile, get ready for your local May 1st protests. (More locations will be certainly be added to that map as the day gets closer).

And until then, there are lots more opportunities to get out and protest.

How protesty!


Tangent!

Hey are you able to use their map on mobile without issue? It’s the worst I’ve used in years. It might treat one finger like two, or none at all. Too tired to email them right now but certainly whack on the latest iOS on a new phone.

Yeah, zooming and planning around works fine for me on android.

Would a protest that involves protesters blocking the parade from moving result in an american tiananmen square?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago

why would i want to stop Trump of making a fool of himself towards the civilized world? when we can troll him on the issue he cares the more about, after grifting: crowd sizes

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Maybe protest and block the parade. This parade feels like bait to start riots. They want riots.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

Better to protest in peace and ignore the parade. Just drawing a larger crowd and some good media attention will troll him enough. Concentrate on signs showing ways the money could have been used for good.
